relieve any case, and we consider it the
duty of all druggists to recommend it

least to try one 10 tie, as 50, 900 dozen
bottles were sold last year, and no one
case where it failed was reported.

It is q fact not easily understood and
sometimes disbelieved, that crops in
Dakota will mature with less moisture
than in almost any other part of tho
continent. Said ex. Representative
Roach of Larimore the other day:
'Last year We actually had no rain
around Larimoro from the time wheat
was put in the ground until harvest.
1t seems impossible, hut the stalks
headed out and grew right along until
the wheat ripened, and although the
rain would have greatly increased the
yield. we had a fair crop as it was and
as fine grain as ever saw. The clay
subsoll retains the moisture and the
consequence is that grain will grow in
Dakota when it would be withered and
blasted on ordinary land" - Pioneer

Woodticks on Horses.

As a preventive we would suggest
placing the horses in n clean stable TO
sleep at night, and when they are
turned out to pasture in the morning
give them a good greasing with COM
mon hogs lard. If you will add little
oil of tar to the lard it will make it
still more offensive to the woodticks.
To remove the ticks when they have
commenced to burrow in the skin,
touch them with a little kerosene, about
rs muck as. will adhere to the end of
your finger, One part carbolic acid to
fifty of water may also be used for kill
ing the ticks. But if the pasture and
stables are infested with these insects
they will attack your horses whenever

In recent number Of the Century is a

who daily inquired for him. Even Sena-

often had difficulty in seeing him at the
